Karthik Karunakaran, Ph.D.
If a black cat crosses your path, let someone else cross first
If you spill salt, don’t throw it over your shoulder—it doesn’t work in Russia
If you forget someone’s name or don’t recognize them, it means you’ll be rich
Never give yellow flowers to a lover—it signals a breakup
If a hare crosses your path, it’s bad luck
If you see swallows flying low, it will rain
Never open an umbrella indoors—though not uniquely Russian, some observe it
Rubbing statues in certain places (like metro stations) brings luck
Never greet or say goodbye on the threshold—invites bad spirits
Never whistle at night—invites evil spirits
